Hide & Seek on the Hawaiian Reef: Calling all seekers! Guests can see if they can spot the mamo hidden in a school of manini. Is that a pipefish or a coronetfish swimming by? Is there a sneaky flounder camouflaged on the sandy sea floor? Dive in—all ages are welcome to join the fun and explore the Hawaiian reef... in the classroom!

Under the Sea Pumpkin Carving: Visit our friends in the shark tank for a special pumpkin carving with our special guest divers.

Treasure Hunt: There’s treasure to be found! Keiki and their families can find the hidden treasures throughout the Aquarium, uncovering surprises and delights at every turn.

Halloween Costume Contest: Keiki dressed in their Halloween best will have a chance to walk the stage and win some fa-boo-lous prizes.
